I’ve always loved seeing traditionally feminine things with irreverent phrases on them. It takes all the ‘You should act like a young lady’ training that I got as a child, and turns it on its head. I heard Dame Judy Dench embroiders bad words in gorgeous hoops, and I had an old pair of jeans, so I immediately decided to try my hand at seeing what I could put on them.
I also have a history of bookbinding and sewing.
The result is the Fuck Book. The Fuck Book is for me to put anything I like in. It’s allowed to be f-ed up, thus the name. And it’s made of old jeans, including the copper thread. The only new material is the green thread - even the paper is ironed-out packing paper from Amazon packages.
In all her glory. |
